I've no idea what my timings would be without knowing a definate lift and how that stair situation would be worked out as even if I were to brave it it may not be ok on their insurance.
I can always carry food if not around mealtime etc, the newer field Jacket combined with the combat trousers means I can move kit to pockets to balance weight, Guns just need an idea of whats on range as I can bring and share an assortment of types with the exception of PCP currently.
